Pretty Pastel Wedding Details at The Alexandrian Hotel

Pastel wedding portraits in Old Town

With its fresh and sunny color palette and a vintage garden aesthetic, Keeley and Jonny’s pastel wedding at The Alexandrian was a stunning celebration of love! Keeley’s elegant bridal bouquet was a study in soft pastels. The wide array of featured blooms included peach Juliet garden roses, Cafe au Lait dahlia, light pink spray roses, white stock, light blue delphinium, and pale yellow roses, accented with variegated small leaf pittosporum foliage. The finished design was full of texture and cheer.

 

Her bridesmaids carried smaller and simpler, yet similar, pastel wedding bouquets of peach roses, Cafe au Lait dahlia, white stock, light pink spray roses, and light blue delphinium, accented with variegated small-leaf pittosporum.

The groom’s boutonnière we created for Jonny showcased a festive yellow rose finished with small leaf pittosporum. For the rest of the boutonnières, we substituted an ivory rose.

The couple exchanged vows in a sweet ceremony in The Alexandrian’s courtyard. We had a wonderful time creating a striking focal point for their nuptials, with a design that evoked a magical garden. The couple’s pastel wedding arch was framed with a lush garland of variegated ivy foliage, rimming the top edge and trailing delicately along the sides. The top of the arch was accented with a romantic garden mix of Cafe au Lait dahlia, peach roses, light pink and ivory spray roses, white stock, and light blue delphinium. Accents of hearty southern smilax completed the effect.

After the “I do’s,” guests found their place cards at an escort table festooned with three vintage mint glass containers of varying sizes with a richly textured design of white hydrangea, peach stock, peach roses, light pink spray roses, light blue delphinium, light pink astilbe, and touches of variegated small
pittosporum foliage.

Keeley’s and Jonny’s family and friends then sat down to a wonderful meal al fresco in the courtyard. Half the tables were anchored with a glass cylinder vase filled with a richly textured pastel wedding flower design of white hydrangea, peach stock, Cafe au Lait dahlia, peach roses, light pink astilbe, light pink spray roses, light blue delphinium, and variegated small leaf pittosporum and seeded eucalyptus foliage. The other tables featured glass cylinder vases that held the bridesmaids’ beautiful bouquets.

The happy couple shared their first meal as husband and wife at a sweetheart table adorned with Keeley’s bridal bouquet.

Keeley’s and Jonny’s wedding was filled with soft color, romantic blooms and plenty of love! Thanks for including us as part of it!

Annual reminder, because winter is coming: winter weddings don’t have to be white. ❄️

Three color stories we’re loving this season:
🤍 Icy winter + candlelight
🍷 Burgundy, plum & wine (goodbye, traditional red)
✨ White, gold & metallics

Which one are you? I have opinions — tell me below. 👀

Is there anything better than a museum for a wedding? Asking for a friend…
